Luis Enrique was annoyed after Barcelona's defeat by Malaga at the Camp Nou, but he refused to place the blame on Dani Alves.

The Brazilian made the mistake which handed Juanmi the chance to open the scoring after seven minutes, which he did. 

"This is a game of mistakes and successes," said Enrique. "It is the fault of the whole team. When we do well, it's all of us, and when we fall, it's all of us as well. Never individualise." 

Barcelona have the chance to put things right against Manchester City on Tuesday night, in the Champions League.

Asked if the mindset of his players would be affected by the defeat, Enrique replied: "The future will tell. Defeats, when they happen, are painful and difficult to overcome. We have a great challenge in three days and we will try to overcome it.

"We had a hard time generating chances. There was disorganisation. It is essential to restore order to win games."
